Desert Gate – Ocher Tamegroute Candle Holder
Description
Handcrafted in the historic pottery village of Tamegroute, the Desert Gate candle holder embodies both heritage and modern form.
Its organic double-arch silhouette evokes the sacred gateways found in the Moroccan desert symbols of transition, balance, and light.
Each piece is shaped and fired by hand in underground clay ovens using ancient techniques, giving it its raw, unpredictable beauty.
The glaze blends ochre gold, sandy beige, and smoky bronze tones, with subtle imperfections that make every piece truly one of a kind.
When lit, the candlelight dances through its open arches, creating a warm, sacred glow, ideal for a meditative space, a dining table, or as a stand-alone sculpture.
